The Wicks lab is interested in understanding the complex biological changes that occur during inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. These conditions occur when the immune system mounts a response against the body’s own tissues. They include diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, scleroderma, myositis, uveitis, and vasculitis.
They use preclinical models of these human diseases, in parallel with patient samples, to gain a better understanding of the molecular events that drive disease progression and tissue pathology. Through these studies, they ultimately hope to unveil critical information that will enable the development of new diagnostic tools and therapies.
